Maybe not.

Hi Home

The big news to come out of the UN this week was People, the End is Near! if something is not done about overpopulation and climate change. I don't think we have a couple of decades before crisis is here. In the US we have been inundated with millions of Mexicans who are not residents. The same is going on all over the world. Desperate people are on the run!

I hate to date myself but a Civics teacher I had in the 1970s predicted exactly what is happening now due to overpopulation. We had no idea then the climate would take a dive too and people would be clamouring to get into other countries because of lack of food, water and employment. I am guessing that as resources dwindle the situation will become more extreme and violence will take over. I don't think I'm being overly pessimistic here but maybe I am.

I've seen accusations online of people railing against their governments for not keeping immigration under control. We are wising up.
